We are joined on the podcast by a senior lecturer in sport and exercise science at the university of Bath, who is also a consultant for the Premier League, FA, LTA and Bath Rugby, Dr Sean Cumming. With Sean we discuss how variation in maturity of young athletes causes large selection biases for talent identification, what clubs such as Ajax and Southampton have done to address this and why educating coaches on this topic is vitally important!
